Tonia was excited, she was beside herself with joy. She was going to spend the next two months in Usman's house.
Scratch that, she was going to spend the rest of her life there. She
was so convinced, she could worm her way to his bed and won't have to
leave after all.
"Tonia, are you ready? I hope you've dropped your bags in the car. We leave in the next five minutes." Usman told her.
He had gone to the airport with his mom in order to say goodbye and he
only came back to the house for
Tonia, close the doors of the main
house and to leave instructions for the rest of the staff.
The Gardner, Security guard, and Cleaner were the only ones left behind.
They were left to do as they pleased, tend to the compound while they stayed within their living quarters.
They arrived Usman's house and it was equally a breathtaking edifice.
Though, not as big as the family mansion, but it was tastefully built
and decorated.
It looked like a bungalow from the front, but on a closer look, there was another floor towards the rear view.
It was a duplex.
On entering, Tonia saw the beautiful living room, painted a lovely ash
colour, accentuated with white. The window blinds were floor length
embroidered chiffon.
The living room as well aerated and lit by multiple
big windows. The floor was covered with black marble. The electronics
were of top quality and solid black colours.
And the leather upholstery, equally black and beautiful.
"Oga, this your house is very fine o. Finer than our own house sef. It
even looks like it was built yesterday.
Everything is so shiny and new. I
want to be living here o." She told Usman as she struggled to carry her
bags through the living room door.
Usman chuckled. He had always known Tonia never hid her feelings.
"Nawa for you Tonia, you just want to drop my mum like that? Your
loyalty has shifted at the sight of my house." He said jokingly.
"No o. It's just that your house is very beautiful and new."
"Ok. Let me show you your room. There's only one bedroom downstairs,
and that's where you'll be staying.
As you can See, there's no one
staying here with me, except the guard outside, so you'll be doing all
the house chores, but if it's too much for you, let me know so I can
hire more hands."
"No o, it can't be too much. The house is not as big as the other house, I will cope." She answered hastily.
This was just perfect.
This was just perfect.
This was what she had always wanted. A chance to be alone with Usman.
No house chore is too much, no one would be employed to pour sand in her
garri.
"Okay. If you say so. Drop your bag and you can fix us something to eat, I'm too tired to go out."
Tonia spent the whole week getting herself familiar with the house, the new environment, and neighbourhood.
She went to the neighbourhood market to get a few things and was
appalled at how expensive things were there, though she had more than
enough money to buy them.
She catered to every of Usman's needs,
so much so that Usman was feeling like he was living with his mum.
He
bought her an android phone and showed her how to make orders online in
case he wanted her to.
She was also able to activate her social media
connections which she had not been able to for a while due to the lack
of a good phone.
In fact, she spent so much time online, reading articles on etiquette, fashion, how to seduce men, and cooking.
She sent most of her money home to her mother and younger ones. Her mum
had been sick for a few weeks and she needed money to be taken care of
at the local clinic. She wasn't ready to jeopardise her plans, so she
had not bothered to go check on her.
But she called frequently and sent
the little money she managed to save through Damilola when she went
home.

"You're welcome
sir, how was your day?" She greeted Usman as she collected his laptop
bag and jacket from his car and too them inside.
Tonia was
wearing a floral bum short with a spaghetti strap blouse which showed
all her curves. She had decided to set the seductive phase of her
mission into motion after she had established the fact that she was a
homely girl, who was exposed to all civilization had to offer and a
great cook.
She had applied the vanilla body spray she purchased in the market earlier that day. She smelt so sweet and looked really good.
Usman noticed her buttocks as they swayed from left to right as she
walked gingerly ahead of him. He also perceived the sweet smell
emanating from her body. He knew she was up to something, but he was too
tired to care.
"Oga, please go and freshen up while I dish up
your food. The Chinese restaurant delivery was fast. They dropped the
food thirty minutes ago."
"I'm too hungry to freshen up, just dish up for me and let me eat." He said almost irritable.
"Ok sir, sorry sir."
As she dished up for him, she deliberately allowed the spoon fall from her hand unto his laps and then on the floor.
"Sorry sir." She apologised as she bent to pick the spoon, she brushed
her breast against his shoulder and touched his this thigh as she picked
up the spoon.
"What is your problem this evening? Why are you being clumsy, is it too much for you to dish up the food?." He barked at her.
She quickly went to wash the spoon in the kitchen but on getting back
to the dining table, Usman had dished up his food and was already
eating.
Tonia was sad. She was hurt. She thought her plan was foolproof.
